Enjoyable Experience - What an excellent experience! Enjoyed the gondola ride to the top and the “glass box”. It was a very busy day so there were lines everywhere. The train ride was fine but we felt the ice cave was underwhelming. Enjoyed walking around in Chamonix.

Viagem a chamonix - Very good trip, unfortunately we weren't able to make the most of it due to the weather, I'm looking here at Viator for how I can request a cable car ticket refound but I can't find it. Be careful when choosing the day, it's not the company's fault that the weather forecast is bad and the tour has to go the same way. So we have to understand

Very bad experience!! We were deceived, we paid €339 and 124 CHF on the day to just visit the Aguille duMidi Blanc. - The guide asked for more money for the visit to Aiguille du Midi, we had to pay an additional 124 CHF, when this visit was included in the Tour that we will purchase. Furthermore, the mountain train visit was cancelled!! when it was also included in the package we purchased.
